Actually I think Lynyrd Skynyrd would appeal more to classic rock fans than country, but it is amazing how you all stereotype. This music is alot better than half of the new crap that gets overplayed on 103.7 or buried on 102.1. To each their own, that is why there is different music for different people. But don't stereotype, because it makes you sound like an ass, and we definitely do not need anymore stuckup trendy Eastsiders.

SF 2009 - target audience: white trash middle aged beer drinking 1029 The Hog loving and FM106 cowboy hat wearing people. Am I right so far? Okay the side stages will be better as been the usual in the past few years.
